10 Things to Do in Meribel That You Shouldn't Miss

November 15, 2017 Enriqueta Cusson

At the center of Trois Vallees, the world's largest ski area, Meribel gives easy access to the entire vicinity and its more than 400 miles of pistes. Within Meribel itself, the Altiport is for beginners while Saulire and Tougnète are mixed use, and Mont du Vallon serves up long, steep advanced runs against a gorgeous backdrop.

We had a week of lessons with Zoe in early March and really enjoyed it, she was excellent. We had been skiing before but it had been a number of years since we had been, and Zoe appreciated this and got us up to speed gradually. There was enough flexibility that those who felt they were struggling could move to another class, and those doing well could move up, Zoe did brilliantly in keeping the class challenged but never over phased by what was in front of us. The organisation before, during and after was excellent. Would thoroughly recommend Parallel Lines to others.

We have recently returned from our ski holiday to La Tania and are all desperately upset to be home. We were a complete mix of first time skiers and regular skiers and all enjoyed what La Tania had to offer. The fact that is a ski in/our resort has it obvious benefits with young children, we literally got the skis and boots out of the locker and away we went. A couple of blue and green runs straight on our doorstep and more complex runs just a couple of lift rides away. The skiers school looked great as well but our group of 4 children had s private lesson every morning which they loved.

Sylvain was an excellent ski guide and instructor - he really helped to make this trip more memorable and full of exciting skiing / progression. The group was small and this also allowed us to make great progress each day.Thank you Richard. We are glad you enjoyed our small groups and Sylvain's tuition.

Momentum Snowsports

Reviewed By KMSBurns - London, United Kingdom

Between us, as a family, we were taught by Keith, Scott and Ren. Our children's confidence came on in leaps and bounds - they made considerably more progress in a week than they had done in previous years with ESF. Momentum made the experience really fun for them and they came away buzzing at the end of every lesson, looking forward to the next one. We had a family ski lesson with Momentum too where we learnt some valuable techniques for helping the children learn and feel confident whilst skiing with us. Two weeks earlier, Keith had even taken my 78 year old father out - to enable him to ski (which is the joy of his life) and give us the confidence that he would be safe. My father raved about Keith and, as I said to Keith, its not often you get to take the grandfather out one week and the grandchildren the next!

St Martin de Belleville

Reviewed By Luxuryloafers - London, United Kingdom

It is not always easy to ski to St Martin but this year has been exceptionally snowy and the runs to the village have been amazing. All credit to the lift operators as they have over the last few years opened up this area considerably adding new paths and runs to make it easier to escape the massed hoardes on piste.

This place gets going around 3.30pm, dancing on tables, fireworks and loud music. We only stayed for one. Drinks are expensive but you'd expect them to be. VIP area for the very rich and frivolous champers behaviour! Terrible waste of good bubbly!

My son (age 17) took the expert group lessons on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. He’s level 3 rather than 4 so was a bit concerned about the ‘expert’ label, but he needn’t have worried, his instructor Jono was brilliant and taught him some great new skills and techniques. Just 5 in the group, great tuition from the only snowboard specific lesson providers in the 3 Valleys.

Reviewed By Dedmoroz - Luxembourg

We’ve been customers of the ESF for over 20 years. This vast organisation manages to deliver year in, year out excellent instructors and classes. Sometimes I even wonder how come the French winter olympic teams do not manage to grab gold medals in every alpine sport when they have such a great school...
